I need to paint mine so bad. Mine looks like Colton's except mine is peeling, not grease.

I want Mag Hy-tec covers but should probably paint it to hold me over.

Adam, what prep work did you do to yours?

I would LOVE to have an air compressor again...when we moved 4 years ago, we needed the $$$ to rent a UHAUL. Had to sell the compressor to get the cash for it...I had a sad day that day.

Well I got the paint, had to drive more then I thought. Went to Ace Hardware and got there 8 minutes after they closed, who closes at 7? Oh well, so I went to Oreilleys and got it. Just put some more degreaser and washed it off. Now just waiting for it to cool down and dry off then on the paint will go! Think I'm gonna do the whole thing like Alex did
